Analysis of The clouded mind



I always seem to find
Behind my wife's eyes
A clouded mind
A place with lots of whys

Why she can't do any better
Why her life is a failure
Will the world forget her
Analysis her behaviour

I don't see the woman she does
I love her from the bottom of my heart
I only see the mother because
She's beautiful, funny and smart

She needs to unwind
Forget the people who hate
Forget what has went on behind
Before it gets too late.
